52mm Magnetic ND1000 Filter, HD Waterproof Scratch-Resistant Anti-Reflection, Nano-Xcel Series
SKU: SKU.1755
I needed a more travel friendly set of filters to take with me on my hikes that would be too cumbersome to use my square ones. Having these filters in it's own soft pouch was perfect and it didn't take up much room in my camera cube. The magnets were strong as they held on while I was setting up my composition - sometimes in the rain and while on uneven ground.
UPDATE 10/26/21: After over a month, I've already lost a CPL filter. Make sure the filter is flush in either the UV adapter or adapter ring. I was busily setting up my camera on a cliffside when I accidentally bumped my tripod and the CPL filter fell off.

An ND1000 filter is particularly interesting for landscape photography. This can be used to soften waterfalls, for example. I have used this filter several times on vacation for this purpose and have not been disappointed. I have attached an example photo. (River with lateral water drainage) Image quality is consistent throughout the shot. The darkening is also uniform. Have fun taking pictures!

Molto comodi con il meccanismo magnetico. Più volte quelli a vite mi sono rimasti incastrati nelle lenti. Con il ring magnetico sono veloci da cambiare e usare. Quelli di 82mm sono compatibili con il sistema Kase che offre più scelta di filtri ma a un prezzo più alto. Io ho un mix ora dei due brand e mi trovo bene. Per qualità prezzo i filtri K&F si posizione in un ottimo posto. Io li raccomando vivamente

I am absolutely satisfied with the overall package price-performance is definitely right here the magnet is strong enough and I could not find any gaps as described in other reviews the bag offers good protection and can be easily attached with the double Velcro fastener and the eyelet for a hook I would buy the magnetic filter set again at any time

This is a solution for one of my pet peeves, taking filters off and on in the field. I always carry a CPL filter with me when doing a shoot, but it is difficult to take them off and on in the back of a Range Rover on the move. This one is protecting my Olympus 300mm f4.0 lens (UV) and allows me to quickly switch to the CPL when I need it. I ordered another set for my 72mm lenses. Great packaging, good carrying case and I'll be able to cover all my field lenses with the two sets. Extremely impressed with the ease of rotating the CPL filter. My lens cap stays on with no problem and can be either on the CPL or the bare magnetic mount. The magnet is very strong, the filters stay where you want them until you want them off.

Typical of my experience with K&F products, these are excellent filters. They are every bit as good as a couple of other, higher priced, popular and similar products. No color casts, well manufactured, and simply work as described. Save your money and buy these over the more hyped brand names.

I am a photographer and I love adding accessories to my kit. One piece of the ‘kit’ that has been elusive to me is functional, easy-to-use lens filters. I have a great set of variable ND filters, but the one thing I keep struggling with is getting them lined up exactly right in order to screw them into the lens. K&F Concept, a surprising, budget-friendly accessory manufacturer has a really cool set of magnetic lens filters. The set comes with a soft-sided, waterproof carrying case, adapter ring, MCUV filter, CPL filter, and ND1000 filter. The idea behind this set is that you screw on one adapter, leave it on the lens, and then pop the filters on and off as you need them. You don't waste any time while shooting trying to get the filters lined up just right. I think this is a great filter system. The filters are well-made and high-quality.

All 3 filters for me are very useful. The stand-alone ring however, I'm wasn't sure how much I'll actually use it but surprisingly I just leave it on my lens unless it's pretty bad weather, which in turn I use the UV filter as a protective layer for the glass. Personally, I haven't found the UV filter to do much other than to protect my lens and because the glass of my lens is such high quality I don't leave it on as it could degrade the photos, that's why I use the stand-alone ring. I haven't noticed any degrading when using the UV filter so no complaints. As mentioned earlier, however, I only use it to protect my lens. The CPL filter works wonders and the ND filter is great for long exposer shots. the combination with the magnetic touch make this absolutely flawless. would recommend.

These are so easy to use and the quality is fantastic - both the build quality and the picture quality. I can't see any colour cast whatsoever from both the CPL & ND filter. I think you would really need to pixel peep to see any sharpness difference, and even then I'm not sure there is.
Being able to attach the filters to both the UV filter and filter ring is really clever - I keep the UV on my 24-70 F4 and the filter thread ring on 16-35 F4 so it makes it even faster to clip on the filters no matter what lens I use.
Since the ND isn't variable, there's no dark X. And no vignetting at 16mm, unlike when I use my square filter set.
The downsides that I see at the moment:
- You can't replace the filter thread on its own, so if you break or lose it, you have to buy a new set. I contacted support but was asked to pay $16 for delivery of a new thread....
- The range of NDs isn't as big as a square filter system (yet) and again I'm not sure if you can buy them as singles or whether it's just part of these kits
